Mr.Ashok Kumar Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANJANI KUMAR SHARAN ORAL ORDER 17-01-2023 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners, learned APP for the State as well as learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Gaunaha P.S. Case No.25 of 2022, registered for the offences punishable under Sections 341, 323, 354(B), 307, 504, 506 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The prosecution case, in brief, is that on the alleged date of occurrence, informant went to her field. The petitioner caught him with bad intention. The informant raised alarm and her husband came there and made objection. In the meantime, other co-accused persons also came there armed with lathi, iron rod etc. and started assaulting the informant and her husband causing injuries to them.

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.65090 of 2022(2) dt.17-01-2023 2/2 Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated in the present case. It is submitted that the petitioner has got one criminal antecedent as stated in paragraph-3 of the bail application. It is further submitted that there is case and counter case between the parties and both parties are agnates. Learned APP for the State opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner by submitting that the husband of the informant sustained grievous injuries, which is also clear from the impugned order.

Considering the nature of injuries sustained by the husband of the informant, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the prayer for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner is rejected. (Anjani Kumar Sharan, J) S.KUMAR/- U T
